Enhanced Denoise for merged panoramas and HDR files

Enhanced Denoise in 16.8 is a real gift for those of us shooting at blue hour and under the night sky. Thank you. Landscape panoramas are where I'd love to see it go next. My stitched panoramas and HDR merges are the files I print largest. As I understand the current limits (Bayer raw only, not linear raw), I can't run Enhanced Denoise on the merged result. Instead I prepare each source frame before stitching, which on a 20-30 frame panorama means a lot of processing and storage.

Lightroom now treats denoise as part of a batch, merge-friendly workflow. I'd love Capture One to stay ahead here too.

Requested behaviour: Allow Enhanced Denoise on Capture One's own stitched panorama and HDR outputs, or offer a 'denoise source frames' option inside the Stitch/HDR dialog so the merged file comes out clean in one pass.
